4.09 - Support & Bug Reporting

brando · #1 10-05-2009, 12:29 AM

I had a similar problem with installing over a clean copy of 4.08m - a SecuRom error! It's been a long time since I saw one of those

Even when I put in the disc it wouldn't work: told me I had the wrong disc and shut me down. To get around this, I asked a mate of mine who had a non-SR version with 4.09 installed to send me his il2fb.exe file, and that worked just fine.

Also, I fixed up a mate of mine by getting him to substitute his new mg_snd and mg_snd_sse dll files for the originals in 4.08. He was having the same symptoms as you Zent, and has a similar rig also.

One small problem for me. When I finish a offline mission all the buttons at the bottom of the screen such as the refly, main menu, apply and save track are gone and so is the mouse icon. The text is still there but that's it. I've never had this problem and installed the patch over a completely clean 4.08m version. Any ideas?

First off, I don't know what causes this.

I have seen it before, it's not happening to me currently. I think it may be connected to the latest Ati drivers. When I recently reinstalled Vista, it selected it's own driver for my card and I've not upgraded from that for fear of this. When it did happen to me, switching from open GL to Direct X fixed it, there may be something cleverer that also fixes it, if so I'd like to hear about it. Could be Vista isn't part of the problem, but it is what I'm using.

Hi, one problem which I have: I understood that there should be a possibility to save/load different joystick profiles in Input Options Setup page. I saw some video in youtube which was telling about this. But at least in my version this is not visible. The drop-down list for four different joysticks aren't there, actually that Input page looks excatly same as in 4.08m version. Should it be enabled somehow somewhere or... (conf.ini?) am I missing something. I installed 4.09m patch to well-working 4.08m (no mods...) and everything has worked fine for six years now. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
I read the SimHQ.com article again: http://www.simhq.com/_air13/air_420b.html

I'd guess that joystick profile feature wasn't included in the 4.09m package after all. Would have been nice feature though. ??

At the start of the video there is a message:

Everything shown in this video
is still WIP
and will be released after 4.09
